1. A traditional industry family business. You are expected to do every kind of work, and the company lacks clear systems. Policies change from day to day, resulting in serious rework. When people encounter problems, they do not know whom to approach, and responsibilities and authority are extremely unclear.

2. There is also unhealthy teamwork. When employees encounter tasks they do not want to do, they pass the buck to one another. HR often accommodates employees’ wishes and rationalizes this behavior, making the unclear division of responsibilities even worse. Other people are given additional workloads without prior notice, and when something goes wrong, the company only looks for someone to blame. No one actually wants to solve the problems.

3. Daily gossip, badmouthing others, forming cliques, playing petty games, and working overtime due to unspoken rules are all commonplace at the company. Even when working hours are over, no one dares to leave before their supervisor. People often gossip about others only to have the person concerned overhear it, resulting in new hires being unable to stay.

Even when these situations are reported, management simply stands by and does nothing, believing there is no problem. This amounts to silently encouraging this kind of culture.

4. A place suitable for those looking to coast long-term, because if you do not want to do something, you can simply pass it off to someone else. It may also suit people who can accept overtime due to unspoken rules and do not mind a clique-based culture.

Occasionally, there is free afternoon tea.

1. Rework issues: Unclear instructions from supervisors and colleagues lead to rework happening every day, and you may even be questioned about your abilities (Huh???).

2. Unspoken expectation of overtime every day: If they see that you have not left when your workday ends, they continue assigning you work. Applying for overtime is also made unnecessarily difficult.

3. Cliques: Put nicely, they have strong team cohesion; put less nicely, they form cliques. If there is any disagreement, they put personal interests before professional ones and use their positions to target you in countless ways at work, making you unable to stand it and prompting you to resign.

4. High communication costs: They are overly domineering and will not listen to others’ opinions, believing only that they themselves are right.

5. They expect you to be proactive, yet do not give you any real autonomy or remove any of your existing work. They seem to want employees’ initiative and proactivity to be built on time after work.

6. HR is not unaware of the above problems, but cannot actively handle or resolve them, ultimately leaving employees to resign on their own.

Conclusion: If you do not want to be buried with your work, do not come. If you value work-life balance, do not come. If you care about whether communication exists, do not come. This is my most sincere advice to all of you.

Avoid this company at all costs!! A company that does not respect job seekers

The interviewer came to the interview wearing flip-flops! They had clearly already shown disrespect. The interview, including the waiting time before and after, lasted over an hour, and they did not even offer the job seeker a glass of water.

At the beginning, during my self-introduction, they kept interrupting me. When I was explaining my work experience, it was obvious that the interviewer had not looked at my résumé beforehand and kept rummaging through it. (You proactively sent the interview invitation—couldn't you have looked at it first?) During the interview, the interviewer asked about the industry of my current employer. While I was introducing it, the interviewer suddenly said, “I’ve never heard of this brand”… (Could you please not be so rude?)

Since I had never worked in this industry, I first created a graphic based on the style of the official website. The interviewer then said something astonishing again: “Only one?” (Heh… I tried my best to keep smiling.)

Next came the practical computer test. The interviewer said, “Do you actually want to take the test? If not, don’t waste everyone’s time.” (I genuinely don’t know what I did wrong to make you treat me so badly!)

With a spirit of challenge, I still accepted the computer test. We agreed on one hour (one banner + one color-correction graphic), but even though there were clearly still 5–6 minutes left, I was told to stop.

In the end, they brushed me off by saying they would discuss it further, and then asked me to leave.

Takeaway: I would not believe any claims about great benefits from a company that does not respect job seekers!

Besides the official website and social media page, this position also covers more than a dozen other platforms, with no consistent point of contact or visual style. Anything related to design is your responsibility. Put nicely, it means being highly adaptable; more accurately, it is chaotic and disorganized.

The point of contact and the sales team have the final say on the design style and color correction. They will keep asking for revisions over and over, leading to overtime.

You have to accompany photo shoots 1–2 times a month (the studio is in Keelung), with around 15 sets per session. On shooting days, you have to arrive at work an hour early. In addition to reviewing the images, you also have to iron clothes, help change bed sheets, and do other physically demanding tasks.

There are two company-wide inventory counts per year. Looking for inventory discrepancies also leads to overtime.

Conclusion: Hard pass.
